Very good movie...too bad we don't have any white castles up here in Canada. Excellent acting by a great cast. Pointing out major issues in society and having fun at the same time.

btw ... if you remember there was a Shoppers' Drug Mart in the movie ... it was not shot in NJ. It was shot in Canada.

My son age 13 was telling me about this really funny movie. His friends at a "catholic school" were talking about it. Last evening I viewed it and was appaled by the content. For someone to use a hamburger chain to further their personal goals of making money only solidifies my feelings about the raw content of the movie and the white castle chain. It is shameful how $$$ is more important than morals. At one point in my life, I wanted a WC store in my area but now "STAY OUT OF PA. jOHN

Rented this move last Friday night. It was so funny. They should sell this DVD at White Castle as a dinner and a movie night. So go rent this movie. It deserves a 4 star rating. Is it true that they are making a Harold and Kumar go to amsterdam?

The writer of this movie shares the same name as me, which has led to some funny emails @ witz.org

I saw this movie this past weekend -- It was awesome. I didn't go in expecting much but the movie was hilarious! Everyone should go and see it!

A few weeks ago they closed the White Castle's on Fifth Avenue a block down from the Empire State building. Makes me sad. It was two blocks from my office and sometimes I would go in there and order ten and stuff them in my face. I love them by the "sack," even though I can't be in polite company for 24 or so hours afterwards.

I heard the sequel is already in the writing, and Kal Penn will be in the Mask 2, along side Jamie Kennedy! Harold and Kumar was one great movie... especially if you are a brown person.

I went to see it Saturday afternoon with this guy, http://www.xanga.com/home.aspx?user=mrod, and his friends, and laughed until my cheeks hurt! All movie theatres that are playing this movie should have a White Castle kiosk in the lobby.

i like the asian angle, AND i like the fact that Kal Penn is actually a vegetarian and ate only veggie burgers, not white castle burgers, during the whole film.

it's brilliantly, screamingly funny. like a cheech & chong movie directed by john hughes & produced by the people who publish the zine Weird New Jersey. recent portrait of Kal Penn at: http://www.fotolog.net/jaimew/?pid=7988001

I would go see this movie, but I'm worried that since I'm not Asian, and I've never eaten in a White Castle, I'm not going to understand the jokes. But, if it does truly "rock like granite," I'm there. Dude.

not only does this movie break down stereotypes by acknowledging and satirizing them, it's also hella funny! great movie!

Mmmm. It's about time white castle gets top billing on a feature film. I'm happy the movie has been getting great reviews! Fun fact #1: When the White Castle in Parma, Ohio opened 15 years ago the queue to get to the counter wrapped around the entire building for months! Fun Fact #2: One time while completely obliterated, I challenged 2 of my roommates to eat an entire 30-unit Crave Case. Midway through the challenge we must of passed out because all I remember is waking up the next morning with my face on the carpet and white castle shells all over the floor and ketchup all over my face. Fun Fact #3: The White Castle Crave Case box makes for a fun briefcase or bookbag.

Jen Chung, you rock for promoting H&K! First week box office numbers are crucial for a movie taking chances with two Asian American male leads. A sequel called "Harold & Kumar Go to Amsterdam" also depends on these ticket sales. So, go support this film and watch it this weekend! And lindsay, that wasn't funny.

It's neat that White Castle can be so open-minded about the use of their name, but WTF is up with their website requiring visitors to have Flash 6 installed to view it? Thanks but no thanks.

I saw it last friday as well. It was nearly as tasty as a dozen sliders. Go see this movie. Who knew stoner comedies could be socially progressive?

i saw a screening of it last friday... it rocks like granite... it definitely is a little more funny if you are of asian descent, because of all the little cultural "in" jokes sprinkled in, but by all means everyone should go see it... i was laughing non-stop.. definitely worth the money, i'd go see it again...

this movie is damn good...very funny and worth the money...plus john cho is very hot...total babe...and the best part--it takes place in NJ...so, you have to show it love... the "battle of the shits" is probably one of the funniest scenes...fyi

There's a White Castle across the street from where I live at 43rd St. and Queens Boulevard. Sadly, the movie theater across the street is not showing this movie, electing to instead hold Catwoman and I, Robot over for another week. Seeing the White Castle movie across the street from an actual stand-alone White Castle would've been awesome.
